IPC: A63C3/00

Abstract: A novel freely grasped hand-sail is described, which consists essentially of two profiled airfoil surfaces inclined towards each other at an angle between about 180 DEG  and 120 DEG , the leading edges of this hand-sail also forming an angle between about 180 DEG and 120 DEG . In one embodiment, the airfoil consists of sails kept rigid by aerodynamically preformed battens, which sails are stretched symmetrically between two masts and a middle boom. The freely grasped sail turns around its horizontal axis when set against the wind, and stabilizes itself at a certain turn, whereby the section that is more vertically directed yields forward thrust forces, to propel, for example, a sailboard, and the section that is more horizontal in this position mainly yields upward thrust forces to compensate the weight of the hand-sail and the rolling moment exerted on the sail. Wave-jumping while wind-surfing, in particular, can be made easier with the help of this hand-sail.

Title: Automatic deflexion unit characteristic adjusting appliance
IPC: B23K26/08
Filed: 1982-10-11
Granted: 1985-04-10
Abstract: An apparatus for automatically adjusting the characteristic of a deflection unit, illustratively of the type used in laser recording equipment. A reference value for the deflection unit is conducted to a first input of a multiplier, the second input of which is connected to the output of a first memory. The output of the multiplier is connected to a first input of an adder, the second input of which is connected to the output of a second memory. In addition, a comparator is provided which compares the position of the deflection unit with two adjustment reference values. The content of the second memory is varied in response to a zero-adjustment command until, for a predetermined reference value zero, the deflection unit has assumed a zero position. Upon the issuance of a slope-adjustment command, the content of the first memory is varied until, for a second adjustment reference value, the deflection unit has assumed its desired position. The contents of the memories are preserved so that a reference value which is predetermined in normal operation is corrected so that the characteristic of the deflection unit agrees with a desired characteristic.
